Vila Vita Rosenpark in Marburg is a conference hotel on the river Lahn, a few minutes on foot from the old town. With the Congresszentrum Marburg on the same street, which takes up to 520 participants, it can host anything from a small workshop to a full congress. This page covers the hotel and the congress centre as the group presents them.
Seminars and company events
The hotel describes itself as a conference hotel and offers modern meeting rooms for seminars, working sessions and company meetings. The website does not list room names or capacities for the hotel itself, so ask for the factsheet when you send a request. Between sessions, guests can use the spa of about 1,000 square meters, which has a pool, saunas, a steam bath, a snow cabin, infrared seats and a gym.
The Congresszentrum Marburg, at Anneliese Pohl Allee 3, is the larger option. It has 11 meeting rooms that can be adapted flexibly, more than 1,000 square meters of space and room for up to 520 participants in total.
Rooms and capacities
The congress centre is fitted for presentations and video meetings. It has gigabit internet and modern WLAN, preconfigured presenter notebooks, Logitech Connect conference cameras and mobile displays of 75 and 86 inches. Full HD projectors with 163-inch screens are available, as are AirPlay 2 and Miracast for wireless presentation, hand-held transmitters, headsets, PA systems and tablet-based control. The presentation and video conference setup can be tailored to each event. Individual room capacities are given in the group's conference factsheet, not on the web page.

The hotel offers single rooms, double rooms, apartments and suites. The number of bedrooms is not stated on the website, so confirm the room block you need when you ask for availability.
